Résumé : |
Through a highly original and detailed analysis of the memoirs, interviews and other life writings of Poiret, Dior and Schiaparelli, this book explores changing notions of femininity in the early decades of the 20th century, when the democratization of fashion began.
Examining the idea of modernity, eternity and the ephemeral in the writings of these haute couturies, the book reflects on fashion's ambivalent approach to women, which both celebrated and vilifield them, presenting them as both ultra modern style leaders and irrational creatures stuck in the past.
This fascinated text is key reading for scholars and sutdents of fashion, gender studies, cultural sutdies and history. |
